PY-CEI/NRR-2896L Attachment 2 Page: 1 of 1 Management Actions Taken Drug and alcohol testing results for the reporting period are described in Attachment 1.

Zero (0) licensee employees tested positive for illegal drugs or alcohol during this reporting period.

One (1) licensee employee, who held unescorted access was subjected to for cause testing, which resulted in an alcohol level that was not positive, but the individual was deemed not fit for duty during this reporting period. This individual was mandated to the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), access authorization suitability was re-established, the individual was placed in the follow-up program, and unescorted access was reinstated.

Ten (10) contractor employees tested positive for illegal drugs and two (2) contractor employees tested pbsitive-f6r-alcoh6l during this repbrting-period.7AlltcontractorEmhployees wereedenied unescorted access to the Protected Area. Pursuant to Nuclear Operating Procedure (NOP-LP-1002) "Fitness for Duty Program" requirements, the individuals were informed of their right to appeal and of the procedural requirements in order to re-establish unescorted access to the Protected Area. To date, the two (2) contractor employees, testing positive for alcohol have exercised their right to appeal; however, the additional blood draw re-confirmed the positive breath alcohol content. The other contractor employees did not exercise their right to appeal and have not initiated steps to restore unescorted access.

Nine (9) contractor employees were determined to have attempted to subvert the drug testing process through adulteration. These contractor employees were denied unescorted access to the Protected Area due to their attempt of subversion for a minimum period of three (3) years. Additional denials were issued for falsification of their Chain-of-Custody Form, and in some cases falsification of their Self-Disclosure Questionnaire.

Pursuant to Nuclear Operating Procedure (NOP-LP-1002) "Fitness for Duty Program" requirements, the individuals were informed of their right to appeal and of the procedural requirements in order to re-establish unescorted access to the Protected Area. To date, none of these contractor employees have exercised their right to appeal.

As a result of a Fitness for Duty Program concern, thirty-four (34) individuals were subject to unannounced follow-up testing during this reporting period. All testing results were negative, with the exception of one contractor employee who tested positive for alcohol during their follow-up test. Subsequent actions, related to this contractor employee, are outlined in paragraph two of this document.

Initiatives Taken Focus during this reporting period was on in-processing of contractor personnel in support of the 10'h refueling outage at Perry. Working Hour Guidelines Program is part of the FENOC Fitness for Duty Program. We continue to improve the electronic database for efficiency in initiating and approving working hour deviations.
